Uh,  I don't quite understand "scilab/source/tree/bin"...

In SCILAB_HOME/bin, I have:

    dussault at dussault-laptop:~/import/TstScilab/scilab-5.2.1src/bin$ ls
    Atlas.spec  libgluegen-rt.so  libjogl_awt.so  libjogl.so  scilab-adv-cli
    bin.iss     _libjhdf5.so_       libjogl_cg.so   scilab      scilab-cli

    and it is readeable:
    -rw-r--r-- 1 dussault dussault  163604 2010-02-18 10:36 libjhdf5.so

Do I need to put it somewhere else?

Thx,
